Tim Allen stars as Mike Baxter, world voyager and one daredevil of a marketing director who is about to face his greatest challenge yet...his family. After Mikes wife, Vanessa, (Nancy Travis) receives a promotion at work, Mike must spend more time in his female-dominated household. With years of advice and guidance from their nurturing mother, Mikes three daughters are not prepared for their old-fashioned, hotheaded father to take over. Especially 20-year-old Kristin, who is trying to raise her own son, Boyd, with more of a liberal approach than Mike can stand.

When he isnt reclaiming the masculinity in his home, Mike works at the sporting goods man-cave, Outdoor Man: A place where men can buy guns, jerky and a camouflage recliner in one testosterone-fueled location. Mikes boss, Ed, took Mike off of his thrilling magazine expositions and stuck him in front of the computer to supervise the companys website. With the help of his naive subordinate, Kyle, Mike runs the Outdoor Man video log, which not only explores the stores stock of man-gear, but also helps Mike express his biggest concern with the 21st century: What happened to men?�
